Is there oxygen on Mars? Technically yes, but it’s nothing like the amount we have on Earth. So breathing on the red planet is out of the question. However, there IS a lot of carbon dioxide (CO2) on Mars. Now a new technology — MOXIE — has proven that we can convert Martian CO2 into oxygen for use by future explorers. NASA engineer Asad Aboobaker tells us more. Credit: NASA/Producers: Scott Bednar and Jessica Wilde / Editor: Matthew Schara #NASA #AskAnExpert #RedPlanet #MOXIE
